about

Unseen was penned in 2014 as a response to pervasive police brutality and the disproportionate killings of Black people in America that still continues today.

Unseen describes when a life is unjustly taken.
Unseen is the future of so many victims of institutionalized racism and police brutality.
Unseen are the dreams and hopes of too many people that are affected by White Supremacy.
Unseen are these realities by most people who live a protected and comfortable life within these systems.

All proceeds from the sale of the single will be donated to organizations that provide support to underserved communities and families of those impacted by racial injustice and police brutality.

lyrics

Dreams unseen, in the wake of the day
Sunlight shattered by branches on the way
Birds fly and sing, (and) Children play,
While Billie’s Blues takes the day away

Dreams unseen

For the boy, the man, the father
People scream

Judges clean each other

Scaling scheme

Feeds the hate of another

Dreams unseen

For the friend, for the peer , for the brother

Mother’s heart breaks in the wake of the day

The air it whispers, as wings take him away
Down on earth his body, his body floods the way
Blue and red lights at the Crossroad, oh Willie May

Dreams unseen
For the girl, the niece, the sister
People scream
Judges clean each other
Scaling scheme
Feeds the hate of another
Dreams unseen
For the friend, for the queen, for the mother

Aurora, Aurora
End the dark night
Aurora, Aurora
Bring us light
Aurora, Aurora
End the dark night
Aurora, Aurora
Bring us light
